Lew A. Cates, editor of the Polk
County Observer, was in the city
Monday, having spent the week end
at Barview. When the Headlight man
said he was going to spend a few
weeks at Eugene, Lew came back
with the remark that it was a good
place for an editor to go, for there
was a divinity school there.
E. J. Bowers is to can berries for
the A. E. Rupert Cannery Co., of
Portland. This will make the second
factory to can these berries, and as
there are an abundance of berries
the Portland firm will import pick
ers as well as obtain them in this
county. About 100 tons were picked
last year, and it would not be sur
prising if double that amount will be
picked this fall, as the berries are
ripening earlier this year, which will
give the women aqd children longer
time to pick.

dedicated the flag made a splendid
address which appealed to all pres
ent. The mothers who belong to the
W. R. C. and who have sons in the
service of the government, are;John

Resolution of Condolence.
Whereas our wise Father has seen
fit to call from our midst our dearly
beloved brother W. F. Newcomb and
Whereas we deeply mourn his loss.
Be it resolved that our deepest sym
pathy goes out to sister Newcomb,
wife of our departed brother, and to
the other members of the bereaved
family.
Be it further resolved, that a copy
ot this resolution be printed in our
local paper, a copy sent to the family
of our departed brother, a copy be
spread upon the minutes of this
meeting, and our charter be draped
in mourning for a period of thirty
days.

Like the stars high in the heavens,
Their deeds are shining bright,
And the world is shining brighter
From its darkness into light.
No recorded deed of greatness
Has a sculptuors chisel wrought,
But the link of love and duty
Tells the story they have taught.
Let the blessed be that binds us
Like the link be inter-twined.
Let friendships love be with us
And our truth forever shine.

A rather interesting idea for alter
ing the incidence of ths lnooms tax
tn proportion to ths number of per-,
sons dependent for support upon the
income was put forward in the
British house of commons recently
tn the form of an amendment to the
finance bill. The idea wa* that any
man of family, instead of receiving
exemptions to a certain amount for
his wife and children, should divide
his Income -into equal -shares, one
share for each person dependent up
on it, and then income tax should be
assessed on each share as a separate
per capita income. It was argued
that this was a far more scientific
method of regulating the incidence
of the tax and of recognizing the
superior claims of those who had un
dertaken the responsibility of bring
ing up children than the exemption
system which obtains in England
very much as in this country. The
chancellor of the exchequer said
he had "great sympathy” with the
idea, but could not accept it, appar
ently because of the necessary labor
involved in recasting the bill to
bring in the same amount of revenue
under a different scheme of levying,
The British tax, of course, extends
much further down and is more
closely graduated than the American.

Yet the taHk of supplying the sol

significance of its successful accom

think of it. And what they think is
known from the positive assurances
of the German staff that it could

Shirtsleeves Fighting.
Old Europe has almost forgotten
what shirtsleeves fighting Is. Even
a Frenchman was astounded by what
he saw the Yankees do in a charge
where his detachment was in close
contact with them:
They leaped over the trenches,
some of them peeling off their coats
after running a few hundred meters
in the great heat, and fighting in
their shirtsmeves.
What would have happened to
boches who threw aside imperial
government khaki ccats in this rude
and reckless style? Would any suc
cess have prevented summary pun
ishment? We believe not.
The American is as proqd of his
uniform as any soldier on earth, but
resentful of being checked by mere
accessories, as resentful as Mulvaney

The war is making the democracy

to a story told by Governor Samuel

“Only a few days ago, upon yonder

boys from Cambridge who were go

letter which I had been privileged to
see—written by a boy who is in the
trenches, to his mother. That boy
had been educated at Groten school
and at Harvard, and brought up in
peculiarly exclusive surroundings.
He had been serving at the front 8
months as a private, and in this let
ter—which he intended only for his
mother—he told about his tyvo spec

named Ernie O’Callahan and the
